Pacquiao wants Spence vs. Crawford winnerFormer eight-division world champion Manny Pacquiao says he’s open to the idea of taking on the winner of the Errol Spence Jr vs. Terence Crawford fight. Pacquiao would need to come out of retirement to fight the winner of that clash. If Pacquiao is serious about wanting to fight the winner, he needs to return to the ring and get a fight under his belt against a top-tier opponent. The boxing public would be more interested in seeing Pacquiao fight the Spence-Crawford winner if he shows that he still possesses his skills by defeating a top 20 contender first.
The 43-year-old Pacquiao (62-8-2, 39 KOs) was asked on Thursday if he’d like to face the still-unsigned Spence-Crawford winner, and he asked in the affirmative.
What do you think guys? Can Pacquiao still have that fierce to compete with either Errol Spence Jr. or Terence Crawford?
Personally, for me, even if he is fit and capable to fight, it's better to just enjoy his retirement while making money thru exhibition fights.
No need to achieve new things to add to his already established successful legacy. That's enough.
I agree. He should focus on whatever he is doing in politics.
Maybe he can say these things because he does not have much to do yet. He recently lost the presidential race and his position as a senator is over.
If he can take a new position in the government then perhaps that will keep his mind off boxing.
He had done enough and he made a lot of Filipinos proud. Sure, there will be a lot of money in PPV and advertisements but in exchange for another stain in his record is not worth it.
